Former Emmerdale star Roxanne Pallett has personally thanked Hull Royal Infirmary after she was airlifted there after when she was injured in a horrific crash.

The star blacked out for 30 seconds after crashing in to a concrete wall on Wednesday afternoon at Hunmanby Raceway near Bridlington, and according to the Mirror, she was convinced she was going to die.

Firefighters took almost two hours to free her from the wreckage before she was flown to Hull in an air ambulance.
